Stay in the loop

Yayoi Kusama's Infinity Mirrors exhibit is finally open to the public in Toronto (well, for those who were lucky enough to score tickets, at least).

“Our earth is only one polka dot among millions of others… We must forget ourselves with polka dots! We must lose ourselves in the ever-advancing stream of eternity.” - Yayoi Kusama. Such a fascinating artist and wonderful exhibit on right now at the @agotoronto. #infiniteKUSAMApic.twitter.com/4KuLE52EWO

Even complaints about how crowded, slow and brief the experience was were framed quite reverently.

@agotoronto I'm glad I renewed my membership to see #infiniteKUSAMA. It was busy & I wished we had more time in the rooms. Your staff & volunteers did a nice job managing the crowd. They were polite, pleasant and kept everything moving. pic.twitter.com/sSQloJKzDV

Some in the city have complained that they're already sick of seeing photos from the exhibit, but those who've actually gone inside seem very pleased.

Kusama's six reflective landscapes are the main attraction, but visitors will also get to see the artist's own intimate drawings, her early Infinity Net paintings and some of her surreal sculptural objects.

Another block is set to be released by the AGO tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. The art gallery also promises that there will be a "limited number of same-day tickets available on site each day starting at 10 a.m., with a max of 2 tickets per person."
